A Naval training film in four parts made for the R.N.M.S. This is Part 1: Breathing for others. An evocative safety film which begins with a number of stark reminders over the importance of air with a number of dramatised scenes such as drowning, carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to death. The action of the lungs is explained graphically. Resuscitation is explained. A sword swallower demonstrates how the air passage can be fully opened.

Notes

Print by technicolor. RCA Sound Recording.
There are a few clicks and jumps in the soundtrack.
The opening intertitle is a list of thanks to, amongst others, the War Office and the British Medical Association. Unfortunately it has been cropped from the film to video telecine transfer.
